Hello to all! I'm a RN with a BSN and BS in Biology. I've been a nurse for 3 years now; doing home care and ER. I want to get out of the clinical setting and do administrative work. I'm researching in other job alternatives and I came upon a degree:...

Hello! I've been in nursing for 2 yrs; mostly in peds home care and 7 months of ED experience. I was recently offered a hospital job in Peds unit but after 2 days I quit. I'm not cut out to work at hospitals and I don't see myself doing bedside for l...

I haven't checked this thread in a while. So...thanks for those nice nurses out there who understands where I'm coming from. Nursing is not just the bedside... I've met too many nurses who are so negative and I just don't have the time to hear their ...

There are jobs out there for nurses outside the bedside. Look into that if the floor is stressful for you.

Thanks Kyasi:D

I've been a nurse for almost 2 yrs now and I must say that bedside can really burn you. I'm trying to get away from the bedside. I was an ER nurse for 9 months...I had no time to eat, go to the bathroom, and i couldn't sleep thinking that i had to go...

Thanks for your opinion; seriously. I would like to know if anyone can give me any info on MBA in Healthcare and Life Sciences. Much appreciated:)

Hello everyone! I have an interview next month at Holy Cross Hospital (very nervous about that!). Would someone tell me how their Critical Care/ER training program is like and what's their starting salary? Thanks!

I'm a new staff nurse in the ED and I have a high interest in becoming an NP within 1 or 2 yrs from now. So, does anyone know any Emergency NP or Critical Care NP programs in NYC? Thanks!:)

Hi all! I'm in the process of filling out my endorsement application. My question is: when I'm filling out my blue (FBI history record) and lavendar (state criminial history) cards, do i use my new MD address or the old one from my home state? Thanks...

Hi! I'm relocating to Maryland. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Edited to add: What's a safe area in Silver Springs to rent a room?

AHA! Thanks so much for the info..I really appreciated!

Is Holy Cross Hospital north of Silver Spring? Well, I want to settle in a quiet and safe neighborhood in Silver Spring. Can u tell me some of the zip codes that are safe? Hopefully u can help me out Jenny!

Oh! Thanks!

i applied in feb. and this is part of the e-mail i got from cedars-sinai: [color=white]rn new graduate open house this is an invite event only, walk-ins will not be entertained. □ this event is limited to new or recent rn graduates only . □ yo...

I got that invite! I have to RSVP before May 18th for June 4th interview, but I don't know if i should b/c I was already hired in Maryland for their ER/Critical Care Residency Program in July and ER is where I want to start, but Cedars-Sinai is a Mag...

There's a job fair coming up from ADVANCE Nurses; taking place at the Javit center (NYC) on May 8th. Good Luck!!

Hey Jaime! If you are willing to move anywhere I suggest you go to www.indeed.com and type in "New RN Grads" and click on "Find Jobs". The site will give u a list of all hospitals nationwide that welcome New grads or lists New Grad RN Residency Progr...

Well, from what the recruiter told me, it's a 3 month program in the ER. The first few weeks is in class, then gradually work on the floor. I start in July! I think they are still hiring. I was hired the day after my interview. I know how hard it is ...

Thanks! It's good to read this b/c I was hired() and will soon relocate to Maryland!!

Nope! It doesn't matter. My friend went last November and she's telling me to go today. I txt a couple of people i met at previous open houses, job fairs and they are going too. There are a lot of new grads out there looking for jobs! Nursing shortag...

Don't give up "flipper628"! U r not the only new grad looking for a job. BTW, there's a job fair today from 1:30pm to 4pm at Rutgers (Newark). Here is the link if ur interested:D http://cdc.newark.rutgers.edu/CDCRUN09/CDC_Fairs.html

If St. Mary's Hospital does close, then more experienced nurses will be on the loose and that's bad news for the new grads who are still looking for jobs!

I also got the same e-mal from NYP, but I'm only a new grad. I think I probably did not apply correctly. Meaning I didn't attach my transcripts, professonal references, etc. I'm still going to apply again!
